was probably most interesting to me was on friday the market staged a fairly decent rally and then obama spoke and basically you know every time he got a round of applause it was one to two points on the s. and p. so i think he came out with a message that unfortunately from my perspective seemed very partisan and claiming he had a mandate to do what he wanted and the market reacted very very poorly so i'm hoping that over the course of this weekend people are starting to. you can say you know what the middle of this country want some real resolution they don't want partisan politics fifty percent versus forty eight percent or whatever the final numbers were there isn't a real mandate mandate that i think the mandate they should take away is the frustration from the people that we want politicians who actually work and come up with good solutions i hope we start seeing that friday was very concerning but hopefully the president and you know the politicians the instant reaction from the markets and decide to you know pursue a different course rather than your party partisan bickering righ
